Such an excellent location, which is it's very most attractive feature. Everything else is basic and small rooms, but the ocean makes all the difference.

By the Sea
This is an older property that has been kept up fairly well. It is right on the ocean, but the beach is not accessible from the hotel. Non the less, falling asleep to ocean waves is most relaxing.

The hotel is wonderful & beautifully located with spectacular views of the ocean - especially during our fabulous dinner. Although the room was on the smaller side and slightly worn a dated, it was comfortable and the bed was clean & firm. My only complaint, upon first entering the room the smell of cleaning chemicals was a bit unpleasant.
